I agree that the stem is backward. Look at the profile photo. The "flat" part of the stem and the top tube form almost an equilateral triangle from a perpendicular taken with the quill of the stem as the base. Reverse the stem and it will almost be parallel with the top tube, similar to my TTT adjustable stem.
